Got in last night at 11.30pm to fid the wife coming downstairs:

Me: "what you doing up so late?"
Mrs: "err.....had a bit of an accident!"
Me: "Uh oh, who has done what?"
Mrs: "well you know your new amp...?"
Me: "WHAAAT!!!???? For the love of baby jesus, what have you done to my new Denon 2113?. Speak before i throw the kitten, claws first at ya woman!"

Aaanyway, one of our kittens, the retarded one, wandered behind the Denon, usually to defecate all over the cables, my step-son goes to grab him and kicks his huge glass of apple juice all of the amp.
Trips the whole house out (weirdly).
I get in, and when i pick the amp up and tilt it, apple juice just runs out.

It's pretty much ****** isn't it? :mad: Only had it since boxing day.

So, typical woman's logic;
Mrs: "Ill buy you a new one, don't want to increase our home insurance premium!"

1. She doesn't have the money
2. That's what insurance is for ya dumbass!
3. Make step-son pay the excess on the insurance, it was his bloody fault.

What's a fella to do? :rolleyes:
 
One of our cats clawed the power cord to one of our plasma TVs my brother tried to grab her, She flicked the cord and cracked the TV.

Thankfully mine was covered.
 
Maybe you should realise that

a) It sounds like a genuine accident
b) Its only an amp

Things get broken. Grow up and deal with it!

Ban him from drinking apple juice. Won't happen again then.
 
Given a replacement from Richer Sounds is £279, is it really that big of a deal.

It probably will be cheaper to just buy a new one.
 
I see you having two options:

1) Kick the cat out.
2) Kick the Step-son out.

I like cats, they are cute.
 
I would say put the cat on a certain auction website but I doubt the regulations would allow that.

Next step the cat and the son are out for work/ household chores.
Not sure what the cat can do.....

Don't put the amp on the floor? Kill the cat?

It was on a table, quite suitably placed. I wasn't there when it happened so i'm struggling to see how the idiot managed to 'kick' the glass over :eek:
Yep, he kicked it.
Can't kill the cat cos......wel, right now can;t think of a reason, but i'm sure the mrs won't agree. :rolleyes:
